When
a daredevil teen pushes herself too far, she must choose between two
boys: the one who wants to keep her safe, and the one who dares her to
return to her old self.
Seventeen-year-old Dyna comes from a
family of risk takers and is an avid thrill-seeker herself, until the
day she splinters her ankle in a terrible fall. Her whole life goes from
mountain biking and rock climbing to sitting at home and attending
group sessions at the bizarre alternative healing center that her hippie
mother found. The boy who witnessed Dyna’s accident believes her injury
is a wakeup call and he encourages her mild new lifestyle, but a young
Afghanistan War veteran she meets at the healing center pushes her to
start taking chances again. Forced to face the consequences of her
daredevil impulses, Dyna finds herself in danger of risking the one
thing she’s always treated with caution—her heart.
